    graphics/opencv: update to 4.5.1 -- and make port more easily maintainable · c7cf59e1
    tcberner authored
    This is a major upgrade from 3.x to 4.x.
    
    Changelog from versions 3.4.1--4.5.1 can be found here:
        https://github.com/opencv/opencv/wiki/ChangeLog
    
    Note: this has explicitely not been added as a new graphics/opencv4 port, but replaces the
          previous graphics/opencv[3] port. Again, to improve maintainability by not giving ports
          the option to pick the "wrong one" - this leads however to some abandoned ports being
          broken.
    
    The port has been greatly simplified:
        * graphics/opencv-core which existed to enable ffmpeg to depend on opencv, and vice versa
          has been removed. ffmpeg no longer can depend on opencv.
        * graphics/py-opencv has been integrated into graphics/opencv, the default versions python
          bindings will be built unless the PYTHON option is explicitely turned off.
        * graphics/opencv-java has been integrated into graphics/opencv -- it is off by default,
          but can be enabled by toggling the JAVA option -- there are no consumers in the tree,
          so that option might go away in the future.
        * All the previous options have been removed and replaced by a (hopefully) sane set of
          dependencies that make the port and package most usable for the majority of consumers.
          - Please let me know if you think there are better defaults (i.e. anything that is missing,
            or something that should not be dependet on).
          - If you think something should be added or removed, please open a bug report.
          - If you think something should be added as an optional dependency, please open a
            bug report (with a good reason [tm]).
    
    The depending ports have been updated to work against opencv4, or marked broken.
        * Ports broken:
          - graphics/rubygem-objectdetect: OpenCV4 no longer ships opencv-1.0 API
          - graphics/p5-Image-ObjectDetect: OpenCV4 no longer ships opencv-1.0 API
          - graphics/gimp-gmic-plugin: OpenCV4 no longer ships opencv-1.0 API
        * Backports:

        * Others:
          - misc/actiona: switch to pkgconfig 'opencv4'
          - multimedia/libav: drop opencv support
          - misc/darknet: already failed to build prior to the upgrade
          - math/saga: remove patching added to work against opencv3
